Can't forget BNSF's 3 SD32ECOs (rebuilt SD45-2s with 12-cylinder 710 prime movers). CN has recently ordered 20 SD70ACe-T4s (road #s unknown) BNSF...
Brightline and FEC are needed for this route. We'd get fast passenger services and heavy freight trains. Locos for this route would be Brightline...
Here's a fantastic idea for a new Spirit of Steam route: the original Transcontinental Railroad set in the late 1860s-1870s. The route could...
-Modern CSX Diesels -MP15 for switching -SD70ACe -ST70AH (SD70ACe-T4) -CW60AC/ES46AH (CSX CW60AC with GEVO-16 Prime Mover) -C40-8W -GP60 -SD80MAC...
Ditto on the SD7/SD9 Cadillacs. DTG (or a 3rd party) could make the following versions: -SP Black Widow or Bloody Nose versions for Peninsula...
We'd need a Tehachapi Pass or Donner Pass Spirit of Steam route. The steam-era Donner Pass route could also include an SP Consolidation or...
This would be a fantastic route with steam, but a 1960s-era version with a U30B, a GP20, GP35, or GP40 (or GP40-2), and FP7/2 F7B set w/...
Those FM Erie-Builts are beautiful. I would love to see them on the Hiawatha. SD40s, FP45s, or SD45s would be awesome to see as DLCs, too, as well...
The new 4600HP SD70ACe-T4s have equivalent tractive effort to the older SD90MAC-Hs since the engine (12-1010J) is basically an upgraded version of...
An SD40E (rebuilt SD50) would be great for helper services on HSC. I'd also like to see an ET44AC and AC44C6M.
This route in TSW2 would give us some great classic locos including GP7/9s, SW- and NW-series switchers, FMs, and Alcos. I'd love to see a New...
Some actual yard switching scenarios would be fantastic. The old Microsoft Train Simulator BNSF Marias Pass and Cajon Pass routes had plenty of...
We also have the NS Horseshoe Curve.
The Rock Island RR would be cool to see. We should get more fallen flag railroads in TSW2.
A BNSF GP60 and either an ET44C4, C44-9W/AC44C4M, SD70ACe/SD70ACeP4, or ES44AC/DC/C4 would be perfect for freight services. The night time freight...
I want the BNSF ET44C4 version.
The hump yard mechanics would be amazing. I would also like to see some other yards with humps (preferably on the BNSF or UP railroads).
What's the new US route? I still want a BNSF or ATSF route. The WP Feather River Canyon set in the 1960s would be amazing, too. We also need SP,...
ST70AH (Tier 4 SD70ACe), ET44AH, SD80MAC, SD50-2/SD50-3, SD40-3, GP38-3, GP40-2, and Genset Switcher
I also would love to see the Western Pacific Feather River Route with freight services pulled by U30Bs and either GP20s, GP35s, or GP40s/40-2s and...
I would prefer UP steam with a Big Boy, Challenger, and FEF, as well as a 4-12-2 as DLC.
Add the SD80MACs to NS Horseshoe Curve as well. I'd also like to add a few other pack ideas: UP giant diesel packs. -Pack 1: Gas Turbines Pack...
A C&O 2-10-4 T1 would be a great addition to the list. The Allegheny 2-6-6-6s are a must.
Also for DLC: CSX SD70MAC, SD70ACe, ES44AH, SD45-2, SD50-2/3, SD40-3, GP38-3, ST70AH.
Freight services are necessary. Freight on this route is handled by UP. My ideas for UP locos: C45AH, SD70AH-T4, SD70M, SD40N, GP60, SD59MX,...
The ECML needs a Class 55 Deltic.
I would love the Big Boy #4014 as well as FEF3 #844. The engine should come with a UP excursion consist and a couple of auxiliary water tenders.
DLC suggestions: SD70AH-T4, C45AH (ET44AC), GP22T4 rebuild, SD70ACe, SD70M, SD59MX rebuild, 3GS-21B Genset, GP40-2
CN also just ordered 20 SD70ACe-T4s, so maybe we could see those engines made as a DLC in the future.
I'd also like to suggest a CSX ST70AH (SD70ACe-T4), SD40-3, GP40-2, GP38-3, MP15, and GP60.
Pre-1995 ATSF locos I would want: -B40-8W -C40-8/C40-8W/C41-8W -C44-9W -SD75M -SD45-2/SD45-2B -SD45U -SD40-2U -GP30U -GP35U -GP40X -U30C -C30-7
The ARR has 15 GP40-2s that could be great to see instead of the GP38-2s. We could also get both the 40s and 38s. Also, some of the ARR SD70MACs...
For UP, a GP60 would be great for freight services. A Genset Switcher or one of UP's Tier 4 rebuilt GP38-2s (can't remember what the designation...
I want to suggest the following US steam locos as well: -ATSF 4-8-4 #3751 -ATSF 4-8-4 #2926 -SP GS4 #4449 -UP Challenger #3985 (will be restored...
Add the Empire Builder consist and a Siemens ALC-42 Charger. I'd also rather have a BNSF GP60 than a GP38-2.
I've suggested this route before. I'd love the Heisler and Climax as well as 1 or 2 Shays (including WM #6).
I hope that if this engine is made, it has a working Gresley Valve Gear. This would be perfect for Sherman Hill.
Rio Grande locos such as the GP60, SD50, SD40T-2, SD7/9, GP7/9, and GP30 would be great to see on this route if it was set in the 1970s-80s. The...
My wishlist for US routes: -BNSF or ATSF Cajon Pass -Tehachapi Pass with SP/ATSF or UP/BNSF -BNSF Seligman Sub (part of it) -Pacific Surfliner...
I'm still hoping for a BNSF or ATSF route for the new US route. A steam era route would be amazing too. I still want UP Big Boys, Challengers,...
ECML with Deltics would be amazing. The Class 20s and 37s would be great, too.
